Chapter 177 Marrying into a Rich Family
Pei Ruxin didn't catch up with Yang Jiyu, but saw Ye Lanzhou at the door. Ye Lanzhou didn't expect her to come out suddenly and bumped into her head-on. Fortunately, Pei Ruxin didn't notice it, and she said sorry and left.
At first, Pei Ruxin just felt that she looked familiar, so she didn't take it seriously. Ye Lanzhou breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't expect that just as she was about to leave, Pei Ruxin in front of her suddenly stopped and blocked Ye Lanzhou's way.
"Aren't you the one on Suzaku Street that day? How did you get in disguised as a woman?"
Ye Lanzhou secretly thought that Pei San was really quick-tempered. Even when he was so scared by the bugs, he still remembered her, a passerby.
But if she continued to make a big fuss now, it would inevitably attract attention, and then she would be exposed. There was no need to go through this trouble, so she should avoid it if possible.
She lowered her voice to make it sound deep, and said, "Miss, please don't slander me. This is an old-fashioned way to seduce people. I'm here for fun, not an official here. Miss, you've got the wrong person."
"Who's here to see the official?"
Seeing Pei Ruxin's face immediately flushed, from her neck to her face, she was...
Are you shy?
Ye Lanzhou had just said one sentence when he had already thought of how to respond next. Before he could open his mouth, Pei Ruxin picked up her skirt and left.
Ye Lanzhou: ...What did I say?
I didn't expect that Pei San looked straightforward, but was actually so thin-skinned. He was so embarrassed just because she said she was here to find an official.
She then thought of her marriage to Xie Chengyan. Although it hadn't come to fruition because Young Master Pei had murdered his fiancée, it had been talked about in the court for a while. Marrying such a shy person into the palace, she didn't know what it would be like to meet Xie Chengyan.
It was just a casual thought, but when my mind went to Pei San entering the palace, I felt uncomfortable.
It's always like this these days. Whenever something is related to Xie Chengyan, she tends to overthink it.
Obviously, their relationship is completely different from the initial mutual exploitation. She seems to have fallen in love with Xie Chengyan.
As she was thinking, she walked out of the Nongxiang Hall, but saw a figure in plain clothes appear in front of her. Yang Jiyu was holding a medicine box and standing not far away, looking at her, as if waiting for her.
Ye Lanzhou walked over, and Yang Jiyu spoke first, saying, "Miss, I think we've met a few times, at Xinglinchun."
Ye Lanzhou nodded and said, "Xinglinchun's medicine is of good quality. A friend recommended it to me."
After hearing this, Yang Jiyu smiled gently. Ye Lanzhou then discovered that she had a small dimple at the corner of her mouth. It was very faint, and she looked a little playful when she smiled. However, the cold temperament emanating from Yang Jiyu quickly dispersed this playfulness.
She whispered, "Thank you for your trust, but I don't know what will happen in the future. Those two medicine boys are too young, and I don't know if they can hold on."
"And you?"
Yang Jiyu lowered her eyes and whispered, "I'm getting married and can't manage it anymore. When my brother and I settled in Shangjing, my brother's money wasn't enough for the two of us to live on, so I begged the former owner of Xinglinchun to take me in as an apprentice. I promised to take care of Xinglinchun forever."
"At first, I really thought so. I came from a poor family, and I thought the person I would marry should be from the common people. After marriage, I still had to earn money to support my family." She paused, then continued, "I didn't expect to marry into a wealthy family. I don't know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing."
The Pei family is powerful and would definitely not let their daughter-in-law go to the pharmacy to buy medicine.
Ye Lanzhou had not expected that the dispute in the court had involved a commoner like Yang Jiyu. She came from a poor family and had never experienced the upbringing of a daughter of aristocratic families, but had to endure the pain of marriage between aristocratic families.
